AB  - This chapter summarizes the experimental methods used to obtain “superalkali” clusters. First, a brief review of the names, classifications and descriptions of the chemical structure of these clusters useful for explaining the experimental research was given. In the next part of the chapter, the various methods of mass spectrometry are presented, with emphasis on the study of the evaporation of individual salts of alkali halides or their mixtures, where “superalkali” clusters are inevitably detected. Surface ionization (thermal ionization) and the Knudsen effusion cell are two standard techniques that have been used in mass spectrometry for many years and have played an important role in the field of “superalkali” clusters from their discovery to the present.  For this reason, the basic principles of operation of the surface ionization source and the Knudsen cell have been presented, along with a brief history of the origin and application of these methods. Some new possibilities of using the Knudsen cell in the mass spectrometer are pointed out, as well as the possibility of combining surface ionization and the Knudsen cell to obtain “superalkali” clusters. The possibilities of determining ionization energies by these two methods are also described.

AB  - Gold chloride clusters play an important role in catalysis and materials chemistry. Due to the diversity of their species and isomers, there is still a dearth of structural studies at the molecular level. In this work, anions of AunCln+3- and AunCln+5- (n = 2–4) clusters were obtained by laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI MS), and the most stable isomers of AunCln+3- were determined after a thorough search and optimization at the TPSSh/aug-cc-pVTZ/ECP60MDF level. The results indicate that all isomers with the lowest energy have a planar zigzag skeleton. In each species, there is one Au(III) atom at the edge connected with four Cl atoms, which sets it from the other Au(I) atoms. Four growth pathways for AunCln+3- (n = 2–7) clusters are proposed (labelled R1, R2, R3 and R4). They are all associated with an aurophilic contact and are exothermic. The binding energies tend to stabilize at ~ −41 kcal/mol when the size of the cluster increases in all pathways. The pathway R1, which connects all the most stable isomers of the respective clusters, is characterized by cluster growth due to aurophilic interactions at the terminal atom of Au(I) in the zigzag chains. In the pathway of R4 involving Au-Au bonding in its initial structures (n ≤ 3), the distance between intermediate gold atoms grows with cluster size, ultimately resulting in the transfer of the intermediate Au-Au bonding into aurophilic interaction. The size effect on the structure and aurophilic interactions of these clusters will be better understood based on these discoveries, potentially providing new insights into the active but elusive chemical species involved in the corresponding catalytic reactions or nanoparticle synthesis processes.

AB  - This study is focused on the detailed examination of the combustion properties and kinetic analysis of a cellulose acetate fibrous bundle (CAFB), separated from used cigarette filters. It was shown that the faster rate of CAFB heating allows a large amount of heat to be supplied to a combustion system in the initial stages, where the increase in heating rate has a positive response to ignition behavior. The best combustion stability of CAFB is achieved at the lowest heating rate. Through the use of different kinetic methods, it was shown that combustion takes place through two series of consecutive reaction steps and one independent single-step reaction. By optimizing the kinetic parameters within the proposed reaction models, it was found that the steps related to the generation of levoglucosenone (LGO) (by catalytic dehydration of levoglucosan (LG)) and acrolein (by breakdown of glycerol during CAFB burning—which was carried out through glycerol adsorption on a TiO2 surface in a the developed dehydration mechanism) represent rate-controlling steps, which are strongly controlled by applied heating rate. Isothermal predictions have shown that CAFB manifests very good long-term stability at 60 °C (which corresponds to storage in a sea shipping container), while at 200 °C, it shows a sudden loss in thermal stability, which is related to the physical properties of the sample.

AB  - Nanoparticles (NPs), a distinct class of particles ranging in size from 1 to 100 nm, are one of the most promising technologies of the 21st century, and titanium dioxide NPs (TiO2 NPs) are among the most widely produced and used NPs globally. The increased application of TiO2 NPs raises concerns regarding their global safety and risks of exposure. Many animal studies have reported the accumulation of TiO2 NPs in female reproductive organs; however, evidence of the resultant toxicity remains ambiguous. Since the surface area and chemical modifications of NPs can significantly change their cytotoxicity, we aimed to compare the toxic effects of pristine TiO2 powder with surface-modified TiO2 powders with salicylic acid (TiO2/SA) and 5-aminosalicylic acid (TiO2/5-ASA) on the ovaries, oviducts, and uterus on the 14th day following acute oral treatment. The results, based on alterations in food and water intake, body mass, organ-to-body mass ratio, hormonal status, histological features of tissues of interest, and antioxidant parameters, suggest that the modification with 5-ASA can mitigate some of the observed toxic effects of TiO2 powder and encourage future investigations to create NPs that can potentially reduce the harmful effects of TiO2 NPs while preserving their positive impacts.

AB  - This work examined the possibilities and limitations of model-free and model-based methods related to decrypting the kinetic complexity of multi-step thermo-oxidative degradation processes (as a testing system, a [4-(hydroxymethyl)phenoxymethyl] polystyrene resin was used), monitored by thermal analysis (TGA-DTG-DTA) techniques. It was found that isoconversional methods could successfully determine the correct number of process stages and presence of multiple reactions based on derived Ea(α) profiles and identify the negative dependence of the rate constant on the temperature. These methods could not overcome the problem that arose due to mass transfer limitations. The model-based method overcame more successfully the problem associated with mass transfer because its calculation machinery had capabilities for the correct solution of the total mass balance equation. However, a perfect fit with the experimental data was not achieved due to the dependence on the thermal history of the contribution (ctb.) of a given reaction step inside a fitting procedure cycle. On the other hand, through this approach, it was possible to estimate the rate-controlling steps of the process regarding the influence of the heating rate. It was found that for consecutive reaction mechanisms, the production of benzaldehyde and gases in high yields was controlled by the heating rate, where low heating rates were strongly recommended (≤10 K/min). Also, it was shown that the transport phenomenon may be also the rate-determining step (within the set of “intrinsic” kinetic parameters). It was also established that external heat transfer controls the overall rate, where the “pure” kinetic control regime had not been reached but was approached when lowering the temperature and size of the resin particles.

AB  - This paper explains the basis for the excitation energy-independent fluorescence emission of biomass-derived carbon dots (CDs) and shows that these CDs have excellent anti-melanoma and anti-metastatic potential. Additionally, we demonstrate that the black carrots´-derived CDs can be exploited as cell cycle-sensing agents, because of the interaction with chromatin material. Besides their optical properties, fluorescent CDs have gained increased attention for image-guided cancer treatment due to their water solubility, environmental friendliness, affordability, ease of synthesis, and primary biocompatibility. CDs have excellent photostability, determined by their precursors and synthesis pathways. In this study, CDs with chemically homogenous surface functional groups were made using a hydrothermal technique from black carrot extract, an anthocyanin-rich substance derived from biomass. The anti-cancer and anti-metastatic properties of black carrot-derived CDs can be attributed to flavylium cations on the surface, spherical forms, and high water dispersibility. Most importantly, these CDs demonstrate a stable emission at a single wavelength, 612 nm, independent of the excitation energy, which we have explained theoretically for the first time.

Nanoparticle-guided cancer treatment modalities are promising in their anti-cancer efficiency and upgrading potential. We have synthesized and characterized Gd-doped titanium-dioxide nanoparticles (Gd-TiO 2 NPs), which showed good biocompatibility with MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cell lines. To assess the effect that these NPs have on tumor cells, we used synchrotron radiation Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and principal component analysis. We elucidated the biochemical changes in the two cell lines induced after their interaction with these NPs. Results demonstrated changes in nucleic acids and carbohydrate metabolism and alterations in the protein conformation in both cell lines. In addition, considerable changes in lipid area were observed in PANC-1 cell line, suggesting that Gd-TiO 2 NPs have a prospective to be further studied as systems for pancreatic cancer treatment.

AB  - Textile dye effluents and textile waste disposal represent two significant environmental challenges. Here, we present possible combined solution for both. Urea-derived graphitic carbon nitride g-C3N4 is thermally exfoliated to nano n-C3N4. Both obtained materials are characterized in detail, and their photocatalytic efficacies in photodegradation of three textile azo dyes under simulated solar light irradiation are compared. n-C3N4 exhibited superior performance over g-C3N4 under given experimental conditions. Novelty of the work is the subsequent usage of the non-woven jute post-industrial waste as a photocatalyst support. It was shown that NW jute impregnated with n-C3N4 can be successfully used in three consecutive photocatalytic cycles, keeping high photodegradation efficacy (~ 90% in the case of Acid Orange 7, and 55% in the case of Acid Blue 113). Additionally, possibility of usage of NW jute post-industrial waste as textile dye sorbent is presented in the case of Basic Yellow 28.

AB  - The literature data emphasize that nanoparticles might improve the beneficial effects of near-infrared light (NIR) on wound healing. This study investigates the mechanisms of the synergistic wound healing potential of NIR light and silver metal–organic frameworks combined with nitrogen- and sulfur-doped carbon dots (AgMOFsN-CDs and AgMOFsS-CDs, respectively), which was conducted by testing the fibroblasts viability, scratch assays, biochemical analysis, and synchrotron-based Fourier transform infrared (SR-FTIR) cell spectroscopy and imaging. Our findings reveal that the combined treatment of AgMOFsN-CDs and NIR light significantly increases cell viability to nearly 150% and promotes cell proliferation, with reduced interleukin-1 levels, suggesting an anti-inflammatory response. SR-FTIR spectroscopy shows this combined treatment results in unique protein alterations, including increased α-helix structures and reduced cross-β. Additionally, protein synthesis was enhanced upon the combined treatment. The likely mechanism behind the observed changes is the charge-specific interaction of N-CDs from the AgMOFsN-CDs with proteins, enhanced by NIR light due to the nanocomposite’s optical characteristics. Remarkably, the complete wound closure in the in vitro scratch assay was achieved exclusively with the combined NIR and AgMOFsN-CDs treatment, demonstrating the promising application of combined AgMOFsN-CDs with NIR light photodynamic therapy in regenerative nanomedicine and tissue engineering.

AB  - The vibrational properties of 2⁢𝐻−TaSe2−𝑥⁢S𝑥 (0≤𝑥≤2) single crystals were probed using Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. The end members revealed two out of four symmetry-predicted Raman active modes, together with the pronounced two-phonon structure, attributable to the enhanced electron-phonon coupling. Additional peaks become observable due to crystallographic disorder for the doped samples. The evolution of the 𝐸2 2⁢𝑔 mode Fano parameter reveals that the disorder has a weak impact on electron-phonon coupling, which is also supported by the persistence of two-phonon structure in doped samples. As such, this research provides thorough insights into the lattice properties, the effects of crystallographic disorder on Raman spectra, and the interplay of this disorder with the electron-phonon coupling in 2⁢𝐻−TaSe2−𝑥⁢S𝑥 compounds.

AB  - Several recently signed environmental agreements and protocols emphasize the global need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, with a focus on limiting coal consumption due to high NOX and CO2 emissions. However, many countries, including those in the Western Balkans, rely heavily on coal for electricity generation. The outdated thermal power plant infrastructure in these regions poses a major challenge when it comes to meeting modern environmental standards while maintaining efficiency. This study is part of the more comprehensive research which aims to develop an expert system that utilizes existing measurements to estimate key parameters crucial for both energy production and pollution reduction. The focus is on Serbian thermal power plants, particularly plant "Nikola Tesla" unit B1. One of the critical parameters for optimizing thermal power plant control loops is the heating value of coal, which is challenging to measure in real time due to the coal's varying chemical compositions and caloric values. This paper examines 74 different parameters measured in 59 instances to estimate the hating value of coal at unit B1. Through detailed analysis and feature selection methods, including linear regression, this research aims to identify the most informative parameters for estimating the heating value of coal, which will improve the control system that enables more efficient and environmentally friendly power generation in coal fired thermal power plants.

AB  - Electrochemical supercapacitors represent advanced energy storage devices that excel in the swift storage and delivery of electrical energy, effectively bridging the gap between conventional capacitors and batteries. The present work, aimed to investigate charge storage properties of SrGd2O4 and rare earth ions Yb3+and Tm3+ doped in SrGd2O4. Both materials were prepared via simple sol-gel synthesis and characterized by XRD, XPS, and FE-SEM with EDS. Characterization confirmed the presence of Tm3+and Yb3+ in the SrGd2O4 matrix with a uniform distribution of elements. The charge storage behavior of pure SrGd2O4 and SrGd2O4:Yb4Tm1 in various electrolytes was thoroughly explored. Large electrochemical potential windows were shown by both electrode materials in aqueous 6 M KOH (1.7 V), which is essential for supercapacitors to achieve high specific energy. Furthermore, SrGd2O4:Yb4Tm1 demonstrated a substantially more pronounced charge storage effect in 6 M KOH electrolyte, with almost double times higher specific capacitance values compared with an un-doped SrGd2O4 sample. The main impact on the electrochemical window had matrix SrGd2O4, while the main impact on specific capacitance had rear earth dopants (Yb3+and Tm3+). Improved charge storage characteristics of SrGd2O4: Yb4Tm1 were also evident through a notable reduction in overall resistance observed in electrochemical impedance spectroscopy experiments. Concerning the two-electrode GCD measurements, the SrGd2O4:Yb4Tm1 electrode in 6 M KOH showed a specific capacitance of 143 F g 1, with the specific energy of 12.5 Wh kg 1 at 0.6 A g 1. These findings demonstrate the potential of rare earth ion doping in enhancing the energy storage properties of SrGd2O4, offering promising avenues for the development of high-performance supercapacitors.

AB  - Magnesium titanate ceramics were prepared by reactive spark plasma sintering (SPS) at 1200 °C for 5 min. Prior to sintering, MgO and TiO2 powders were mixed by high energy ball milling (HEBM) for 15, 30, or 60 min. The effect of milling time on phase composition was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) for milled powders and sintered specimens. The morphology of the sintered ceramics was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while elemental distribution was determined by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The presence of the MgTi2O5 phase was detected in XRD and was confirmed by EDS analysis. Microcracking was observed for specimens prepared with longer milling times and attributed to the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch dominantly due to the anisotropic crystal structure of MgTiO3 phase. The sample milled for 15 min showed the highest Vickers hardness due to less or no microcracking and nearly full density. The dielectric measurements in the range of 10 Hz–250 MHz demonstrated extremely high dielectric permittivity, as high as 104 at 1 kHz. An increase in loss tangents was observed due to oxygen vacancy formation, which was promoted by the vacuum environment during SPS. Oxygen vacancy-related dielectric relaxation was also detected and explained.

AB  - Clinical interpretation of an electrocardiogram (ECG) can be detrimentally affected by noise. Removal of the electromyographic (EMG) noise is particularly challenging due to its spectral overlap with the QRS complex. The existing EMG-denoising algorithms often distort signal morphology, thus obscuring diagnostically relevant information. Here, a new iterative regeneration method (IRM) for efficient EMG-noise suppression is proposed. The main hypothesis is that the temporary removal of the dominant ECG components enables extraction of the noise with the minimum alteration to the signal. The method is validated on SimEMG database of simultaneously recorded reference and noisy signals, MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and synthesized ECG signals, both with the noise from MIT Noise Stress Test Database. IRM denoising and morphology-preserving performance is superior to the wavelet- and FIR-based benchmark methods. : IRM is reliable, computationally non-intensive, fast and applicable to any number of ECG channels recorded by mobile or standard ECG devices.

AB  - Traditional medicine has used sage (Salvia officinalis L.) preparations for centuries to prevent and treat various inflammatory and oxidative stress-induced conditions. The aim of this in vitro study was to determine the bioactive properties of a sage leave extract obtained with environmentally friendly aqueous extraction and lyophilisation in primary human peripheral blood cells. To that end we measured the total phenolic and flavonoid content (TPC and TFC, respectively) with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Non-cytotoxic concentrations determined with the trypan blue assay were used to assess the antioxidant (DPPH, ABTS, and PAB assay), antigenotoxic (CBMN assay), immunomodulatory (IL-1β and TNF-α), and neuroprotective effects (AChE inhibition). The extract contained high TPC (162 mg GAE/g of dry extract) and TFC (39.47 mg QE/g of dry extract) concentrations, while β-thujone content was unexpectedly low (below 0.9 %). Strong radical-scavenging activity combined with glutathione reductase activation led to a decrease in basal and H2 O 2 - induced oxidative stress and DNA damage. A decrease in TNF-α and increase in IL-1β levels suggest complex immunomodulatory response that could contribute to antioxidant and, together with mild AChE inhibition, neuroprotective effects. Overall, this study has demonstrated that aqueous sage leave extract reduces the levels of thujone, 1,8-cineole, pinene, and terpene ketones that could be toxic in high concentrations, while maintaining high concentrations of biologically active protective compounds which have a potential to prevent and/ or treat inflammatory and oxidative stress-related conditions.
AB  - Salvia officinalis L. stoljećima se koristi u tradicionalnoj medicini za prevenciju i liječenje raznih upalnih i oksidacijskim stresom izazvanih poremećaja. U ovoj studiji željeli smo ekstrahirati kaduljino lišće korištenjem ekološki prihvatljivog, “zelenog” pristupa vodenom ekstrakcijom i liofilizacijom te odrediti njegova bioaktivna svojstva u primarnim ljudskim perifernim krvnim stanicama. Ukupni sadržaj fenola i flavonoida i GC-MS korišteni su za karakterizaciju ekstrakta.

abstract = "Traditional medicine has used sage (Salvia officinalis L.) preparations for centuries to prevent and treat various inflammatory and oxidative stress-induced conditions. The aim of this in vitro study was to determine the bioactive properties of a sage leave extract obtained with environmentally friendly aqueous extraction and lyophilisation in primary human peripheral blood cells. To that end we measured the total phenolic and flavonoid content (TPC and TFC, respectively) with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Non-cytotoxic concentrations determined with the trypan blue assay were used to assess the antioxidant (DPPH, ABTS, and PAB assay), antigenotoxic (CBMN assay), immunomodulatory (IL-1β and TNF-α), and neuroprotective effects (AChE inhibition). The extract contained high TPC (162 mg GAE/g of dry extract) and TFC (39.47 mg QE/g of dry extract) concentrations, while β-thujone content was unexpectedly low (below 0.9 %). Strong radical-scavenging activity combined with glutathione reductase activation led to a decrease in basal and H2 O 2 - induced oxidative stress and DNA damage. A decrease in TNF-α and increase in IL-1β levels suggest complex immunomodulatory response that could contribute to antioxidant and, together with mild AChE inhibition, neuroprotective effects. Overall, this study has demonstrated that aqueous sage leave extract reduces the levels of thujone, 1,8-cineole, pinene, and terpene ketones that could be toxic in high concentrations, while maintaining high concentrations of biologically active protective compounds which have a potential to prevent and/ or treat inflammatory and oxidative stress-related conditions., Salvia officinalis L. stoljećima se koristi u tradicionalnoj medicini za prevenciju i liječenje raznih upalnih i oksidacijskim stresom izazvanih poremećaja. U ovoj studiji željeli smo ekstrahirati kaduljino lišće korištenjem ekološki prihvatljivog, “zelenog” pristupa vodenom ekstrakcijom i liofilizacijom te odrediti njegova bioaktivna svojstva u primarnim ljudskim perifernim krvnim stanicama.

AB  - Gentiopicroside (Gp) and swertiamarin (Sm), secoiridoid glycosides commonly found in plants of the Gentianaceae family, differ in one functional group. They exhibit promising cytotoxic effects in cancer cell lines and overall protective outcomes, marking them as promising molecules for developing novel pharmaceuticals. To investigate potential variations in cellular sensitivity to compounds of similar molecular structures, we analyzed the mode of Gp and Sm induced cell death in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) after 48 h of treatment. The lowest tested concentration that significantly reduces cell viability, 50 μ M, was applied. Oxidative stress parameters were estimated by measuring the levels of prooxidative/antioxidative balance, lipid peroxidation products, and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2-deoxyguanosine, while gene expression of DNA repair enzymes was evaluated by employing quantitative real-time PCR. Cellular morphology was analyzed by fluorescent microscopy, and immunoblot analysis of apoptosis and necroptosis-related proteins was used to assess the type of cell death induced by the treatments. The discriminatory impact of Gp/Sm treatments on apoptosis and necroptosis- induced cell death was evaluated by monitoring the cell survival in co-treatment with specific cell death inhibitors. Obtained results show greater cytotoxicity of Gp than Sm suggesting that variations in the molecular structures of the tested compounds can substantially affect their biological effects. Gp/Sm co-treatment with apoptosis and necroptosis inhibitors revealed a distinct, albeit non-specific mechanism of PBMCs cell death. Although the therapeutic may not directly cause a specific type of cell death, its extent can be pivotal in assessing the safety of therapeutic application and developing phytopharmaceuticals with improved features. Since phytopharmaceuticals affect all exposed cells, identification of cytotoxic mechanisms on PBMCs after Gp and Sm treatment is important for addressing the formulation and dosage of potential phytopharmaceuticals.

AB  - Due to extensive food production, organophosphate pesticides (OPs) are widely utilized for crop protection, leading to their presence in the environment. The focus of this study was the design of an efficient aqueous biphasic system (ABS) strategy for OP removal, namely, malathion (MAL), azinphos-methyl (AZM), and chlorpyrifos (CHP) from water. Different ionic liquids (ILs) with symmetrical cations were selected as ABS phase- formers (tetrabutylphosphonium salicylate, tetrabutylammonium salicylate, 1,3-dibutylimidazolium dicyanamide, 1,3-dibutylimidazolium salicylate and 1,3-dibutylimidazolium bromide) with citrate salt as a salting-out agent. Initially, phase diagrams were determined, followed by partition studies revealing that the partition of MAL and CHP aligns with the IL- ABS formation trend, while the AZM partition is governed by specific interactions with ILs. For optimization studies, tetrabutylphosphonium-salicylate i.e. [TBP][Sal]-based ABS was chosen, due to obtained high extraction efficiencies of over 99.3 %. After establishing the effects of pH, temperature, tie-line length, and phase ratio on extraction performance, extraction of OPs from a real wastewater sample further confirmed the effectiveness of the designed method achieving complete removal of each pesticide. Furthermore, recovery of IL was achieved using an antisolvent method to precipitate CHP followed by IL-reuse in three consecutive cycles without efficiency decreased. Finally, it was demonstrated that [TBP][Sal] exhibits low cytotoxic potential, indicating that the presence of low amounts of this IL in aqueous media could be acceptable from ecotoxicological standpoint. This study showcased the exceptional potential of the proposed technology for the efficient and sustainable treatment of wastewater contaminated with OPs, affirming its capability to treat significant wastewater volumes.

AB  - The widespread usage of the herbicide glyphosate calls for urgent action, aiming at the development of new, simple, low-cost, and eco-friendly detection approaches. In the last decade, investigation of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) as potential optical probes for various pollutants rapidly grew, thanks to their easy-manipulative structure, remarkable photoluminescence (PL) in the visible part of the spectrum, good dispersibility, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity, as well. Herein, a fast, simple, and environmentally friendly method for GQDs structural modification is presented. GQDs raw powder was exposed to γ- rays at three different doses (100, 200, and 300 kGy) in air, without any solvent or reagents. Irradiation of dots under such affordable conditions led to the additional incorporation of oxygen-containing moieties in the GQD structure. For the first time, oxygen-rich GQDs irradiated at a 300 kGy dose were successfully applied as direct turn-off PL probe for glyphosate detection. The high coefficient of determination (R-squared (R2) = 0.99) and very low limit of detection (3.02 μmol L-1) reveal good linearity between the potential sensor and analyte, as well as sensitivity. Glyphosate was successfully detected in celery samples, with a recovery value of 107 ± 0.85%. To evaluate the biological safety of the proposed sensing probe, [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] (MTT) and the hemolysis assays were performed. Obtained results show that irradiated and non-irradiated GQDs did not cause the death of MRC-5 cells, and hemolysis of erythrocytes. The obtained results demonstrate that GQDs irradiated in an air medium can be potentially applied for glyphosate detection.

AB  - Double ferrite nanocomposites with NiF2O4 as the core and ZnFe2O4 as the shell, were synthesised through combination of co-precipitation and hydrothermal methods. This two-step process resulted in formation of a cubic structured core of around 100 nm and a shell of zinc ferrite nanoparticles which are below 10 nm in size. The core/shell structures were characterised using various techniques such as XRD, Raman, TEM/EDS and VSM. In addition, Ni leaching out of these structures was tested in the ultra-pure water and saline solution. These analyses demonstrated that the shell of zinc ferrites effectively prevents Ni leaching from the core keeping the concentration of nickel well below the level usually found in drinking water. These core/shell nanocomposites exhibit a ferrimagnetic behaviour.

AB  - Gaps in data management in healthcare applications are related to the unbalanced distribution of medical resources, especially in rural areas around the world. Cognitive intelligence in data management implies the integration of cognitive computing, mass analytics and artificial intelligence, especially machine learning, which can be used to find the patient’s health status, physiologically and psychologically transforming the current health system. In order to remotely detect the emotional state of patients during disease diagnosis, it is proposed to integrate the tactile Internet with 6G as cognitive intelligence in the evaluation of data and the Internet for health systems. All this aims to form the 6G Cognitive healthcare Internet of Everything (6GCIoHE) system in order to achieve global availability, extremely low latency and high reliability. 6G is a promising communication technology that will soon dominate the healthcare sector. This technology will lead to significant changes in numerous areas thanks to the increasingly widespread form of artificial intelligence whose development will be stimulated by 6G communication technologies, fundamentally changing our understandings and way of life. In addition, various new methodologies that include quality of life (QoL), intelligent wearable devices (IWD), intelligent Internet of Medical Things (IIoMT), 3D holography, hospital to home (H2H) services and new business models. In addition, 6G communication technologies will lead to remarkable progress in tele surgery as well as epidemiology.

AB  - Variations in the hepatitis C virus (HCV) core gene are related to the progression of liver fibrosis and therapy response. However, the influence of individual amino acid (aa) substitutions at different positions of HCV Core protein on the response to combined pegylated interferon/ribavirin (PEG-IFN/RBV) therapy and disease progression is not yet fully understood. The HCV Core protein can inactivate various genes in the host genome by affecting the methylation of their promoters, leading to liver damage and carcinogenesis. Two genes whose methylation status is affected by the HCV Core protein are the tumor suppressor genes RASSF1A and p16. We have previously shown that the methylation status of these two genes, together with the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs12979860 near the interleukin-28 beta subunit (IL-28B) gene, influences the response to combined therapy. Herein, we investigated a possible association between detected aa substitutions in HCV Core protein and response to combined therapy, liver disease progression, IL28B genotype, and the methylation status of the RASSF1A and p16 genes. In 29 examined patients we found no association between individual aa substitutions and therapy response. However, we observed that patients with HCV Core aa substitutions at position 75 and CT/TT IL28B genotypes were non-responders (NR) (p=0.023), which was associated with the presence of unmethylated RASSF1A gene. In contrast, even 75% of patients with aa substitutions at position 91 and CC IL28B genotype achieved a sustained virologic response (SVR) (p=0.030), and 70% of them had methylated RASSF1A gene. There was no significant association between the methylation status of the p16 gene and aa variations in the HCV core region. Our results suggest that combined analysis of aa substitutions in HCV Core protein, IL28B genotype, and methylation status of the RASSF1A gene may help predict response to PEG-IFN/RBV therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1b.xx

AB  - COVID-19 pandemic caused by coronavirus 2 respiratory virus (SARS-CoV-2) required fast and effective diagnostics for the purpose of preventing the spread of the disease and outbreak monitoring and control. Therefore, prompt, accurate and reliable testing was of particular importance. Indubitably, the most representative, the most sensitive and the fastest method for detection of SARS CoV-2 is Real Time RT-PCR (RT-qPCR). During the pandemic there were numerous different assays, reagents, protocols and reporting procedures under the question mark because of lack of certified standards, standardization of RNA extraction and reporting procedures. In practice, the reliability of RT-qPCR results depend on a number of parameters that include sample collection and processing, method of RNA extraction, choice of assay, choice of instrument, analysis method and operator intervention. Here we present the various challenges which we encountered during our work and emphasize comparative analysis by different assays, as well as automated versus manual RNA extraction. Sampling, adequate manipulation load, the quality of the assay and interpretation of the result are extremely important. Our results revealed that manual viral RNA extraction should be a method of choice for high sensitivity. In addition, amplification assays targeting three SARS-CoV-2 genes are much more efficient from those targeting one. Unfortunately, RT-qPCR (originally quantitative method) was exclusively used as qualitative diagnostic test for SARS-CoV-2. We think that the ideal testing regimen would involve not just qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 but reliable and meaningful quantitative reporting of viral load. For such a thing, a consensus at the level of the world medical community is necessary regarding the most important thing: defining the cut-off value for a clinically significant viral load. It has never been done and therefore many people, all over the world, were sentenced to house arrest for no reason at all.
